How'd you come to choose PPTP to connect the pair of pfSense routers? PPTP is really not as secure as the other options. In fact, my security auditing company recommends running PPTP over a "secure" channel like IPSec (make me laugh to think why one would do that...) Seemsto me the better choice would be IPSec or OpenVPN based tunnels. I use IPSec and it is 100% rock solid between the fixed endpoints. I occasionally get a dropped or hung connection on mobile clients. OpenVPN clients have been very stable too. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
